I generally work within a free tier, as there is no reason for me to step outside of that currently. Tailscale has definitely made it so I don't have to incur additional costs. The ability to use your servers as relay servers instead of setting up my own Headscale server is the primary reason I haven't done so far, because it makes things easy and time-saving.
I am not involved in the pricing side of things as I am an administrator who controls Tailscale and ensures developers have access. The pricing is mostly handled by the IT and accounting team. Based on what I hear from them, it is a bit costly and can be on the expensive side.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that pricing was relatively fine. It had a generous free tier, and the pricing was okay. It is good for the amount of servers that we have. Setup cost was not much; it basically was zero setup cost. We probably just did it ourselves. The software was straightforward. We only had to pay for the amount of servers that were going to be able to enter the network. The company handled the licensing, I am not entirely sure about all the details.

I wouldn't say I have an experience with pricing, setup costs, or licensing because I use the free tier. My needs have never exceeded the free tier as I am the single maintainer of my home network and server, which is beneficial.

I did not purchase Tailscale through the AWS Marketplace.
Until now, all costs have been free. I never used a license. I never purchased or bought anything more than the basic free license.
